==Cultural cooperation==

Bilateral cultural cooperation is based on the "Agreement on Cooperation in the Fields of Culture and Education", signed in 2001. This legal basis enables a platform for regular cooperation and cultural exchange between cultural and educational institutions, which is usually annually renewed with programmes of cultural cooperation between the two Ministries of Culture.  
According to the national census from 2002, around 5,000 Slovene nationals were living in the Republic of Serbia at that time.

==Literature and language==
In March 2013 the embassy co-organised a poetry evening with Slovene poet and author [[Meta Kušar]], awarded with the [[Rožanc Award]]. Te event promoted Kušar's latest poetry collection ''Ljubljana'', which is her third collection translated into Serbian. 

Embassy regularly updates news on the Slovenian language courses for foreigners held in Slovenia, conducted by the [[Centre for Slovene as a Second/Foreign Language]]. Ties have also been established between with the Lectureship of Slovenian Language at Belgrade's Faculty of Philology.

The event was co-organised by the [[Centre for Slovene as a Second/Foreign Language]].
